Hell Bent


This story was alright. It's the weakest from this three parter but it Wraps up Clara's death nicely. I like how the doctor can't let go even bringing himself to killing a timelord and triggering their regeneration. It was weird seeing the doctor choose violence because that isn't who he is but I like how it shows how much he cares about Clara. Having the Sisterhood of Karn here felt odd I don't know why they were here but sure I guess. The design of the Sliders were creepy almost giving off a vibe of spooky to them and the fact they just lurk about in the depths just adds to that. I thought it was sad that the doctor had to forget clara and who she is and Clara's ending was nice. Overall a good three part story that sees my favourite companion off and brings back the timelords & Gallifrey. 7/10
